Kate Hudson Ready for Maternity Clothes

NEW YORK (AP) - Kate Hudson loves to shop, so naturally she's looking forward to buying maternity clothes now that she's pregnant.

``I've been waiting for this moment,'' the actress tells InStyle magazine for its August issue. ``I can't wait until it's time to find fun and stylish maternity wear. I'm actually more excited about dressing as a pregnant woman. You get to present something so completely female.''

Hudson, 24, and her husband, former Black Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson, announced in June that they're expecting their first child. The baby is due sometime early next year.

``I can't wait to bring a little human being onto this planet!'' Hudson tells the magazine. ``When it happens, it will be the most beautiful thing in the world.''

But before it happens, Hudson will co-star with Naomi Watts in ``Le Divorce,'' a Merchant Ivory film that opens Aug. 8 in New York and Los Angeles.

So far this year, she's also appeared in the romantic comedies ``Alex & Emma'' with Luke Wilson and ``How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days'' with Matthew McConaughey.
